Not really considering that everything had the same spread mechanics, recoil wasnt higher than it is now, and the spread being big to an unrealistic degree was actually hurting the game more than it did good, which funnily enough is also an argument that is brought up about BF1 due to its FSM mechanics on MG’s and SMG’s. > [@robmcewen](#): > > @woll3 that video, I never played the old BF games on PC was that what it was like, I think I saw someone not use a rocket launcher or a tank to get a kill but not meny. Well, it was from a Pro Series Match so people use everything to their fullest, and more importantly it shows that BF2 was anything but slow paced or the FPS equivalent of a “simcade”(which would be something like Insurgency, Verdun or RO2), as especially shown by the last firefight starting at 11:37, people jumping around(and you could jump really high in that game while retaining air control), going prone and standing up constantly, etc., and prior to patch 1.4 or 1.5 Jumpshots were possible as well, meaning that you could headshot people while jumping from roofs. 😃 And while ironically it is a bit elitist, i think some peoples perception about BF2 being slow is due to playing mostly with “gated communities”, if everyone else you play with takes it nice and slow, ofc the gameplay will be slower paced. ---

@joshualee585900 Battlefield 2 is liked by some because: Class system Commander system In-game communications Classic preset Scale of battle First three things what are missed most. ---

Lol yeah I was just about to scream out wut? Grenade spam wise bf4 takes the cake with the m320 and the xm25, explosive wise bfbc2 win with its insane grenades and let’s not forget the m2 carl gustav with the explosive perk. ---

If someone says that hard-line is the best in the series doesn’t make it untrue or true it’s just opinion, certainly hard-line did some things very well. Anyway nobodies opinion is gospel if YouTube’s hump BF4 so what? I think BF4 sucks and pails in comparison to bf3. I also think that bf1 is my favourite. Does my opinion stand higher than yours? No ---

Oh yes, I remember seeing LevelCap getting constantly killed by Simon of all people. It must have been humiliating to lose against almost undoubtedly the worst FPS player in the history of human kind. All of these BF YouTubers going on about ‘casul game lol’ would get their heads kicked in by actual professional BF players. Put them all in one team against someone like Relaa, and they’ll be killed in a matter of seconds. These people also loved to abuse use mechanics in previous BF games that allowed one to dominate without any effort, such as M16A3s, M416s, grenades, Little Birds, laser sights, foregrips with no downsides and so on. I agree with the rest of the post as well; if you don’t make any money from the game, you’re almost definitely a casual gamer. The only exceptions that I can think of are flight and racing sims, as those are technically ‘games’, but some people use them for practicing real-life scenarios. ---

People like to think that old Games are better then new ones. I played bf1942, moh and CoD when they came out. And loved them. Never played Bf2 because my PC was Bad at the time and i was still in school. ---

The last time I watched him play on twitch with some of his subscribers, he blamed them for everything going wrong, especially his poor performance. He degraded them to the point of being a total tool. He should be glad it wasn’t me or we would have had words over how rude he was being to his fans. I’ll never watch him on youtube or twitch because of it. If that’s how you treat fans, I’d hate to see how he treats the real people in his life. The dude’s just a total d-bag. ---
